L18M

some older bmw\'s were 4 stud.
might be good to try find what year bmw its off and find the pcd of the rims and et.

Rarerims do PCD converters for about £80 a pair, and they will convert PCD 114.3 to 120.

HTH.

If thinking about PCD converters i\'d personally get some 5x114.3 -> 5x130 convcerters and fit some Porsche Twists (can pick them up approx £300 off ebay) :InLove

Problemw ith PCD converters is they are going to be at least 25mm spacers, so the wheels have got to start with a pretty high offset, even more so if you\'re not prepared to do archwork.
So if you want straight fit on those BMW ones, you\'re looking at hoping they\'re probaby somewhere around et65... :o

If you\'re happy to run slightly daft tyres they\'d still need to be circa et45.
